ABOUT MY WORK
Time separates moments, yet it also binds them. My work explores this tension through the Japanese concept of Ma—the interval or pause between forms, events, or gestures, like the silence between notes in music. This space is not empty; it is where meaning takes shape.
My paintings evolve slowly through the accumulation of thin, translucent layers, often applied one per day. Each layer settles before the next is added, embedding duration into the surface and allowing depth to emerge over time.
As light shifts and the viewer moves, color and form begin to fluctuate—edges soften, boundaries dissolve, and relationships subtly reorganize. What first appears stable becomes fluid. The image is not fixed; it unfolds through sustained looking.
Within this shifting field, meaning does not announce itself. It forms gradually, in the intervals—within the quiet tension of what is seen and what is sensed.
